On the hottest day of the year so far, I painted a mural for the new adventure playground in Alum Chine, Bournemouth. The playground is inspired by ‘Treasure Island’ by Robert Louis Stevenson, who lived at ‘Skerryvore’ at the top of Alum Chine in the late 19th Century. My treasure map incorporated all the play equipment, along with an X to mark the spot where the treasure chest can be found. It was a lovely day to be beside the sea painting.
